As you might expect, the more interesting takes on the Thanksgiving traditions can be found at Sanaa, where you can enjoy poppy seed lavash, house-made naan, and apple-cranberry achar. In Epcot, Thanksgiving menus will be available during lunch and dinner seatings at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall, Biergarten Restaurant, Coral Reef Restaurant, Le Cellier Steakhouse, and Rose & Crown Pub & Dining Room, and quick service at Sunshine Seasons. In the other parks, you can find Thanksgiving offerings at Be Our Guest Restaurant and Tony’s Town Square Restaurant in Magic Kingdom, Hollywood & Vine and The Hollywood Brown Derby in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and at Tusker House Restaurant in Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

If you are wearing a MagicBand, your on-ride PhotoPass photos will now be automatically linked to your My Disney Experience account! This automated MagicBand to My Disney Experience service has been testing at various attractions over the last few months, but now moves to full operational status. You may find that if you have been in the parks over the last 45 days, those photos are also now available. For those guests without MagicBands, new touch-points have been installed at the photo preview walls at select attractions. After riding, you can touch your RFID card to the reader to associate the photo to your My Disney Experience account. Attractions already setup with the touch point features are: Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin, Space Mountain, and Splash Mountain. Test Track, Rock ‘n Roller Coaster, The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, Dinosaur, and Expedition Everest will be coming mid-November. Expect to see the MagicBand automated linking to become the default

The newly reworked 'Move It! Shake It! Dance & Play It!' Street Party will open on Friday October 24 2014 at the Magic Kingdom. Image courtesy Disney Parks Blog Jumping on board with social media, photos taken during the street party and tagged with #MoveItShakeItPics on Twitter and Instagram may make an appearance in the finale of the show using screens on the side of each float. Adding a further level of interactivity will be the ability for guests to vote for music to be used during the show. Move It! Shake It! Dance & Play It!' follows a smilier format to the former 'Move It, Shake It, Celebrate It! Street Party,' so expect to see lots of on street dancing, but with a new set of characters and music. Joining Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Goofy will be Stitch and Phineas & Ferb. Showtimes for the opening day are 11am, 12pm, and 5:40pm, starting near City Hall, and moving to the hub. Sbandieratori Di Sansepolcro - Epcot's latest ente
